Book excerpt: 'How can we talk to our children about Brain Injury?' This is a regularly asked question by parents who have suffered a brain injury and their respective partners. This book has been designed so that children between five and eight can read it independently. However, ideal if should be used with an adult to facilitieate discussion about all aspects of family life and to enhance general emotional wellbeing. This book deliberately makes brain injury one of many things going on for this small group of children because for most children it is only one of many issues in their family life. This story is intended to emphasize that all families are different, with their own strengths and weaknesses and different experiences. Brain injury is another experience that some people encounter and others do not. 'My Dad Makes the Best Boats' should prove to be a great reassurance and comfort for children coping with a parent's brain injury. The book presents situations in which brain injured people can be angry, forgetful or unreasonable and shows that it is not the fault of either parent or child and children should not blame themselves. It also demonstrates the positive aspects of life with a brain injured parent and the enjoyable times that can be spent together'. Headway: The Brain Injury Association 'This book has proved to be a very useful support mechanism for service users and families in the Brain Injury Rehabilitation Trust. We are sure that this will continue to be the case, especially with the inclusion of new activity pages; Professor Michael Oddy, Director of Clinical Services Brain Injury Rehabilitiation Trust.

Download or read book Made by Dad written by Scott Bedford and published by Workman Publishing. This book was released on 2013-05-07 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Snail Soup Can Decoy to keep the candy stash safe. The Customizable “Keep Out” Sign to deter meddlesome siblings and parents. A Bunk Bed Communicator made from cardboard tubes (“Psst! Can you keep the snoring down?”). Clever, whimsical, and kind of genius, here are 67 unique projects that will turn any dad with DIY leanings into a mad scientist hero that his kid(s) will adore. No screens, no hi-tech gadgetry. Made by Dad combines the rough-edged, handmade ethos of a Boy Scout manual or The Dangerous Book for Boys with a sly sense of humor that kids love. Scott Bedford, a creative director by day and Webby Award–winning blogger by nights and weekends, wields an X-ACTO knife, magic marker, and prodigious imagination to create endlessly delightful projects for his two sons. He knows that kids like contraptions and gadgets, things that are surprising—a chair that appears to be balanced on eggshells. Things that are complex—a multilevel city, with buildings, tunnels, and roads, built from old boxes around the legs of a table. And especially things with humor—the Snappy Toast Rack, made to resemble a crocodile’s gaping mouth. The projects are shown in full-color photographs, and the instructions are illustrated in detailed line drawings that exude personality. Some are quick and simple enough to be done in a coffee shop; others are more of an afternoon project— yielding hours and hours of rich, imaginative playtime.

Book excerpt: Have you ever had your entire world fall apart within five short years? Do your relatives often find themselves saying, If only we could turn the clock back, just for a day at your family functions? Welcome to my life. Until I turned seventeen, my life was pretty average. Well, maybe above average. My family went on two lavish vacations a year; we lived in a nice home, and we had a large family whom we saw at least once a week, if not more. I was looking forward to graduating and leaving behind the hellhole otherwise known as high school and while it was the last year of everything I had ever known, I was eagerly gearing up for the chance to see what awaited me at a place where everything was fresh and unfamiliar. But all that changed on one cold November evening. In a matter of seconds, my life would never be the same, and years later my family would whisper in hushed tones, Why? How did this happen to us? And to think that it all started with a phone call.

Book Synopsis The Amazing Crawfish Boat by : John Laudun
Download or read book The Amazing Crawfish Boat written by John Laudun and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2016-03-29 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In any given year, the Louisiana crawfish harvest tops 50,000 tons. The Amazing Crawfish Boat chronicles the development of an amphibious boat that transformed the Louisiana prairies into alternating fields of aquaculture and agriculture. In seeking to understand how such a machine came into being, John Laudun describes the ideas and traditions that have long been a part of the Louisiana landscape and how they converged at a particular moment in time to create a new economic opportunity for both the rice farmers who used them and the fabricators who made them. Walking fields with farmers and working in shops with fabricators, Laudun gives readers a rich portrait of the Louisiana prairies and the people who live and work on them. The Amazing Crawfish Boat seeks to unearth the complex mix of folk cultures that underlie a variety of traditions that are now seen as native to an area populated not just by Cajuns but also by Germans and other groups. Over the years, this diverse mix of cultures has produced an astonishing set of artifacts that demonstrate not only their ability to adapt, but their ability to innovate, and the crawfish boat is a great example of such creativity produced by individuals deeply embedded in their culture and place. While the lives of artists and scientists have been examined for what they tell us about innovation, The Amazing Crawfish Boat seeks to address creativity as part of a larger cultural complex of ideas and behaviors. To ascertain this inventiveness, Laudun examines the historical and cultural trends that led to this creation, drawing from archives, oral histories, and ethnographic accounts. He investigates the shops and sheds where farmers and fabricators work, revealing the immense imagination and intelligence that lie behind the bolts, welds, and hydraulic lines that hold the boats together and, in so doing, hold a way of life together.

Download or read book Do It God’s Way and Get God’s Results written by Roy Bacon and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2021-07-07 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus routinely taught with parables and earthly stories that resonated with people’s daily experiences. His lessons were personable and memorable, and enabled his followers to grasp profound spiritual revelations of the word of God. In Do it God’s Way and Get God’s Results, Pastor Roy Bacon emulates Jesus’ approach. He entwines authentic, thought-provoking anecdotes with each chapter theme to present Biblical truths more lucidly and reveal the benefits of choosing God’s way in every aspect of life. Throughout the book, he examines two alternatives to life’s results: choosing God’s way of doing things or choosing our way. The final chapter is a brief portrait of the life of Jesus Christ, our greatest example of how to do things God’s way and get His results. Do it God’s Way and Get God’s Results is not a how-to guide for overnight success, but biblically grounded advice for obtaining God’s best, now and in your future.

Or Bob Smith, fulfilling his twenty-year quest to catch all forty species of North America's wild trout on the bitter cold morning after his eighty-first birthday. Or the 800-pound blue marlin that made a final lunge-ripping up the deck and dragging a chair, with Paul Clause strapped in it, to the bottom of the ocean. (Paul survived; so did the marlin.)
